(Week 23)

Many years ago when I was a student at Freed-Hardeman College (now University) we had brother Mid McKnight as our guest speaker in chapel. He told of an article that he had read in the newspaper that had the headline, “Millionaire Reveals Secret to His Success.” Brother McKnight said that he read the article with excite-ment not because he hoped to become a millionaire but because he was eager to see if the reason was Biblical as he believed it must be. The secret was summed up in three words – “and then some.” The man said that all his life he had lived by that motto. When the teacher gave them homework he did all that was assigned “and then some.” Thus he was always prepared for the next class. He followed this motto in his first job working after school. He did everything his boss told him to do “and then some.” After graduation from college he and a friend went into business together. They split up the responsibilities for their business and each had his share to do. He said that he did everything that was on his list “and then some.” “That,” he said “was the secret to his success.” Brother McKnight said, “Sure enough that was a Biblical principle. In the great Sermon on the Mount Jesus said, “And whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two” (Mt. 5:41). If the church is to be successful we have got to be willing to go the extra mile. Our failures too often are due to the fact that we want to get by on the bare minimum. When people ask “Do I have to do this?” in reality they are wanting to do the least amount of work possible. It’s the old attitude of “If I don’t have to do it then I won’t.” If the church is going to be successful there are certain things that we need to do. As an example, for a church to be successful the absent need to show up. No church can be successful if the members have so little interest in doing the will of God that they don’t even at-tend the services of the church. So many times they ask, “Do I have to attend all the services of the church?” Usu-ally this is a sign of heart problems. It seems that they don’t want to do any more than they absolutely have to. This is one of the lessons we see the parable of the Ten Virgins. In this parable five were wise and five were fool-ish. What made the foolish virgins foolish? There are sev-eral things that may be pointed out but one of them was the fact that they tried to get to heaven on a minimum of effort. They only brought enough oil for their lamps; they brought no extra. Some people want to go to heaven with a minimum of effort. They do not want to do even one thing more that they have to do. Thomas Didymus was absent on a Sunday evening and he missed seeing the resurrected Christ. Jesus has promised us that “where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them” (Mt. 18:20). -to be continued
